An excellent read
Very practical and insightful. This read contains some of the most highlights I have ever made. Dr. Daniel Morris did not confine himself to one type of temptation but did a great job at explaining how temptation overall works and can avoided. I was pleased at how he used the Holy Scriptures along with other supporting and authoritative texts.
